I'm working on it. Stay tuned.Would this information help us in finding the ever-elusive screws for Sansuis?
I have 2 mangled screw heads in my Pioneer CT-F9191 from using non-JIS screwdrivers (or maybe I'm just a hack). Was about to pull the trigger on this set, but wasn't sure the sizes in this set would be sufficient. The set has sizes #00, #0 and #1. Any screw driver size experts here that wouldn't mind chiming in? Will all three cover it or do I need just one size?
From the ad-
Megadora #900 Series JIS Drivers with comfort grip handle. Sizes include: #00, #0 and #1 which are commonly used in Japanese RC equipment. Larger handle, designed for maximum dexterity. You can't go wrong with this set.
#2 is by far the most common size. Another interesting difference between JIS and DIN/ISO is cross point drive size. JIS specifies #2 for smaller diameter screws than DIN/ISO. The screws used in Sansui equipment are mostly 3mm diameter. DIN/ISO would require a #1 drive for these screws but JIS specs #2.
#00 and #0 are smaller than #1. Unless you are working with really tiny JIS screws, #2 covers almost everything. If you feel a need, get a #1 but unless you are working on watches or eye glasses no need for anything smaller.
